Nana Sadie's Place is a spot to curl up and think about things: crafts, food, and how to live a worthwhile life. Maybe my thoughts will help you shape your own?

Lace for an Elegant Evening of Music

Here, finally, is my beautiful Queen of Hearts lace shawl, she of the broken, yet mended hearts. I was ready to leave for a wonderful concert at the National Symphony Orchestra with Midori as soloist for the evening. A delightful evening, filled with the fun of new, young friends, and those of us older, my sisters, my self, my BIL. Exquisite peasant food at the Kennedy Center for dinner, fine wine, laughter, then wondrous music. And the most comforting thing, was pulling Queen of Hearts around my shoulders and feeling elegant!

About Me

I'm a young Nana to 5 grandchildren, mom to a DD, and I'm owned by my cats: two very special rescued kitties, a Tonkinese, and a newly whole Himalayan. They're known here as The Tonk, and Moji, which is Hindi for Sock (too appropriate, right?). I'm the cat mom as well, to the late Meezer who helped me start this blog and whose spirit lives on in our home. Sewing is my business, knitting is my passion, tho' right now I'm a bit slow at it thanks to an arthritic thumb! I'm learning to be a passionate paper fanatic, an art journaling, paper planner/traveler's notebook nut. Please visit my shop at http://nanasadierose.etsy.com and be sure to visit both of my other blogs: Knitnana for knitterly happenings and Nana Sadie's Place for miscellaneous musings including reflections on my multiple interests and current fascinations.
